Month: October 2015

Covering over a thousand square kilometres with almost 8 million people, it’s hard to know where to start exploring a mega-metropolis like London. Taken as a whole, the city seems brash, noisy and impenetrable. But when you break it down, borough by borough, the real character shines through. From East End market traders on Roman Road, the oldest trade route in Britain, to the oh-so-chic (and expensive) fashions of Chelsea, every area – every street, even – has its own story to tell.

I moved to London 5 years ago from Up North and love it here in the world of red buses and Cockneys, but I'm also passionate about worldwide travel and have a massive bucket list to work my way through - often dragging my poor boyfriend along for the ride!

Welcome to my blog! I hope you find it useful - or at least a little entertaining!
